West Ham fans are telling those who refuse to sit down during games at the London Stadium to obey the rules and park their bums immediately.
ClaretandHugh has today run a poll which declares:ย “The issue of standing fans in the London Stadium rumbles on. Should those who are on their feet sit down or not in order to get the capacity up to 66k?”
With just over 1,000 votes cast the response is becoming a landslide in favour of those who want to see the persistent standers to sit.
A few minutes ago a total of 794 fans or 79.34 per cent said they wanted them to do so with just 176 (17.65 per cent) voting to carry on standing.
The issue has been causing problems among fans with the club having claimed that season tickets are under threat if the standing doesn’t come to an end.

Only another 56000 to vote then ๐ !
Payet didn’t play first half for France , struggling to get balls into the box ! Martial and sissoko are pants ๐
It’s like Brexit all over again, people vote and think ‘what have I done?’ – I’ve never liked Referenda or Polls – mainly because I seem to end up on the losing side!
I thought you wanted people to sit MM the poll is that 80% want that.
Brexit ! The best thing since slice bread ?
Payet came on after 57 mins and created 3 goalscoring opportunities is minutes ‘ 3 certs ,
Totally different class when he came on , France hadn’t created a single opportunity until he came on ,
And he came out of it untouched , touch ๐ ๐
What’s that got to do with seating and standing issue?
Bit more interesting than listening to this crap ain’t it !
Plus you stand up when he walks on the pitch with the team !
You stand up when he scores a goal ?
You stand up when he gets chopped down ?
If he got injured you wouldn’t be able to do none of the above ?
Anything else I can help with? Nearest train station , or cafe ,
Daphne’s new meeting place ?
Well hopefully the extra 9,000 attendees can help out with the Daves payday loans ๐
Yes GW but look at the extra buisness for the salon lol ๐
Will have to install rail seats John for the extra custom ๐
Haha ! ” sit down if you want a rinse “.

We will have to employ some bouncers to eject difficult customers. ! Better call a emergency meeting in advance of the deluge ๐ ๐
One things for sure though , since the addition of chair 101 the Queenie won’t be short of pies ๐
Absolutely farcical poll and the results as entirely as expected and prove nothing. If we scaled this up to the stadiums capacity it would mean roughly 10,000 people want to stand, basically the BML & STBL and the side bits that touch these two (where the standers where forced to buy upon the migration for a comparable view). If you took a poll of say the BML the standing % would be >90 I guess and visa versa for the upper tier. No one is asking for 100% or even 50% standing, Iโm sure people (standers & sitters) would be quite happy with the 17.65% in your article, just as it was at the Boleyn. We just need the areas cleared up, and to be fair anyone expecting to sit in the BML is clearly mad, itโs an โexpect to be standingโ area at least, just like if you go upper tier expect to be seated. Common sense. Hugh – I like you but this poll is smoke n mirrors.
Good point HH but put to the wetties it was more smoke on the water ๐
I don’t think a poll on football forum is anything to get in to a lather about Hitchin.People vote,two hours later it’s forgotten about
